Abstrakt
Psychogenic nonepileptic seizures (PNES) - episodic failure of behavioural control - create a heterogeneous group of diseases. There is no common approach in the diagnostics of mentioned diseases.
The absence of the common diagnostic approach contributes to a significant delay in the diagnostic process, often up to 7 years. Very important part of this process is neuroimaging.
There are quite inhomogenous results in up to date literature review whether in context of morphology or function. The main aim of the presented paper is a review of specific cases in neuroimaging context to collect data for further research.
For the review the authors introduce 2 case studies of patients with PNES on different psychopathological background and their representation via EEG - current density maps using eLORETA software. On the basis of the studied literature and analyzed cases, conclusions are drawn and suggestions for further investigation are proposed.
